Gday /g/
weird thing happened today, I took one of my dual channel ram chips to my local computer store so they could find another two ram chips that would work well with it on my mother board (pic related, currently running DDR3 1866mhz 2 x 4gb)
So the woman takes my ram chip and puts it on a scanner. like an actual document scanner. and now I put it back in my PC and the ram isnt recognised by the computer.
tl;dr can document scanners destroy microchips??? what le fuck /g/

why did the woman put your ram chip in a scanner?
fucking Australians

she said she was scanning my ram so she knew what kind of ram was compatible with it
Do you know how to properly seat ram? Did you test one stick at a time? Was it a staticy day, like you getting shocked when touching a door knob?

yea man i know how to install ram, or is there some specialised meme to properly installing ram that I wouldnt be aware of?

Running pirated windows? Even if not, try adjusting your allocated memory. Mine randomly dropped to like 256mb one time after I removed a dimm. Hope I could help anon-kun~~

Did you remove or install it with the pc on?

>the screen went black
Did... Did you pull the ram while the computer was on, anon?
If so, I think I know what's wrong worth your RAM
